brake upgrade questions



where could i get cheap fbody calipers and brackets?

WPOD will those spread ones still work right or have uneven pad/rotor wear?
 
Raybestos calipers, bracket, pins, "friction ready" from Rockauto at $60 a side. And yeah clamshelled calipers will taper wear-like the earlier photo. That was a few miles of light braking on new friction and rotors (initial heat cycling on the rotors with soft pads), Then I noticed the problem and ordered vette calipers. Also, Rockauto has a $10 core and that's caliper and abutment bracket...so that hardly seems worth it no matter how you break it down...Now if you already had all used parts from a camaro, and just wanted to buy some time 'till you got C5/6 calipers, then I wouldn't have any qualms about running whupped calipers. I wouldn't run then on new rotors though-that'd be a mistake
